Better than a traditional offloading boot

Our physician-designed and patented calf-cradling cushion floats the heel above the resting surface to eliminate pressure. As a result, the heel and foot are completely free of any surrounding surface pressure(s), remain uncovered for wound inspection and dressing changes, and the device allows the patient to walk or stand easily without the need for removal. In addition, the Heel Keeper’s flexible design allows for the use of compression stockings, wraps, and devices (SCDs).

Features

Complete Pressure Relief

The heel is free-floating, eliminating contact with any potential pressure-inducing surface(s).

Keeps Feet Cool

Patients’ feet and heels are uncovered, keeping them cool which improves comfort and increases the time patients wear the device.

Protects Achilles Tendon

The contoured cushion provides additional protection for the Achilles tendon.

Circumferential access

Full exposure of the foot allows access for dressing changes and facilitates wound and skin inspection.

Comfortable

Enhanced comfort, improved compliance. The Heel Keepers superior comfort results in a 60% increase in duration of use when compared to off-loading boots.

Hemless design

Our no-hem design prevents skin irritation of the shin and foot that is common in other products. The Heel Keeper limits exposure of the skin to stitching wherever possible.

Physician Designed, Physician Led, Patient-Centered.

“ I created Ulcer Solutions because only 10% of my patients wore their traditional off-loading boots as directed.

In addition, more than 35% of my patients refused to wear their boots at all due to bulkiness, discomfort, and mobility limitations. ”

“Dr. Finley’s design addresses critical factors, including anatomy and the physical issues surrounding an immobile patient. I have personally worn a Heel Keeper and found it to be comfortable to the point that I was unaware I was wearing it after a short amount of time.”

"I have been a caregiver for over 24 years and own an Adult Foster Care home.  I have never come across such an amazing product for pressure sores. Recently, a sweet resident with Parkinson’s developed large pressure sores on both of her heels. The resident’s son had heard of the Heel Keeper and suggested I try it.  It was the best product I have ever used for pressure sores. In a short period of time they were gone! Our resident continues to wear the products and has had no recurrence of the pressure sores. I highly recommend and am so glad I discovered this product."
